speech?
I think Norm Chomsky makes some very valid points, especially given the corporate media we have today?
He said the First Amendment offered protection from government constraints on free speech, but not from corporate limitations.[/I]
"Nothing prevents me from saying in the United States that the Iraq War was the worst crime in the 21st Century, but I can reach only very marginal audiences on what is pretty obvious fact," Chomsky said. "You can say in the United States within the mainstream that the Iraq War was a strategic blunder, as Obama did, but try saying that it's a crime of aggression of a kind that led to the hanging of Nazi criminals at Nuremberg. Try to write an op-ed about that."
